7.2. Unidirectional Associations


7.2.1. Unidirectional Many-to-one

A unidirectional many-to-one association is the most common kind of unidirectional association.
<class name="Person">
    <id name="id" column="personId">
        <generator class="native"/>
    </id>
    <many-to-one name="address" 
        column="addressId"
        not-null="true"/>
</class>

<class name="Address">
    <id name="id" column="addressId">
        <generator class="native"/>
    </id>
</class>

create table Person ( personId bigint not null primary key, addressId bigint not null )
create table Address ( addressId bigint not null primary key )
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

7.2.2. Unidirectional One-to-one

A unidirectional one-to-one association on a foreign key is almost identical. The only difference is the column unique constraint.
<class name="Person">
    <id name="id" column="personId">
        <generator class="native"/>
    </id>
    <many-to-one name="address" 
        column="addressId" 
        unique="true"
        not-null="true"/>
</class>

<class name="Address">
    <id name="id" column="addressId">
        <generator class="native"/>
    </id>
</class>
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
create table Person ( personId bigint not null primary key, addressId bigint not null unique )
create table Address ( addressId bigint not null primary key )
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
A unidirectional one-to-one association on a primary key usually uses a special id generator In this example, however, we have reversed the direction of the association:
<class name="Person">
    <id name="id" column="personId">
        <generator class="native"/>
    </id>
</class>

<class name="Address">
    <id name="id" column="personId">
        <generator class="foreign">
            <param name="property">person</param>
        </generator>
    </id>
    <one-to-one name="person" constrained="true"/>
</class>
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
create table Person ( personId bigint not null primary key )
create table Address ( personId bigint not null primary key )
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

7.2.3. Unidirectional One-to-many

A unidirectional one-to-many association on a foreign key is an unusual case, and is not recommended.
<class name="Person">
    <id name="id" column="personId">
        <generator class="native"/>
    </id>
    <set name="addresses">
        <key column="personId" 
            not-null="true"/>
        <one-to-many class="Address"/>
    </set>
</class>

<class name="Address">
    <id name="id" column="addressId">
        <generator class="native"/>
    </id>
</class>
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
create table Person ( personId bigint not null primary key )
create table Address ( addressId bigint not null primary key, personId bigint not null )
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
You should instead use a join table for this kind of association.
